Outlook for Selected Markets. DJIA - NASDAQ - S&P 500
The following forecasts are based upon a selection of primary tools and the application of a number of simple Gann rules regarding Time based analysis and forecasting. The 'Change of Trend' (COT) dates should not be taken to represent dates upon which a significant change of trend will occur. Suffice to say that according to rules applied, a change in trend should occur on the given date. How this date is arrived at will be published in the week following the COT date irregardless as to the success or failure of the forecast.
23rd December 2001 - Dow Jones Industrial Average ( DJIA ) Outlook
Taking a number of time frames into account, there is a clustering around the 9th of January and the 10th of January with a couple of major time frames coming out on this date as well as 182 days ( Gann Emblem ) from the 11th July minor low.

23rd December 2001 - Standard and Poors 500 ( S&P 500 ) Outlook
Taking a number of larger time frames into account, there is a clustering around the 9th of January and the 11th of January as well as the 182 days ( Gann Emblem ) from the 11th July minor low.

23rd December 2001 - NASDAQ Outlook
Taking a number of larger time frames into account, there is a clustering around the 21st, 22nd and 23rd of January. This date area also applies to the other markets as it represents 100% of the previous wave down. Although there are time frames also pointing to this area, it should be noted that Markets very rarely 'mirror' in this fashion, so faith in this date is currently low. Market action as the Date approaches will be a better indicator. I leave it to the reader to look into this in their own time.


Summary for Week Ending 28th Dec 2001
DJIA See Chart
*** The January effect appears to have started, although with the usual vigor that one would expect to see. The rally since the the Sept 21st low has been quite swift, and perhaps will dampen the ability for further gains of a similar magnitude without a healthy correct taking place first. Generally all markets this week have been quiet, which is to be expected with the season, and New Years in the coming week to round off the Holiday season, and let the markets get focused on the coming year ahead.

This weeks chart shows the Parallel lines mentioned in the past few weeks finally loose their influence, as well as the Gann Fan ( scale set to 10 ) calling the recent top, which provided resistance to the rally that occurred this week. Also marked up is the 851 Range Square which can be expected to provide some resistance to upwards movements.

S&P 500 See Chart
*** This week has seen the S&P in the doldrums without any real action to speak of. As pointed out last week, this was to be expected. The forward movement , which was a continuation of the previous week has failed to make new highs this week, and as highlighted in this weeks chart, is approaching the upper line on a major Parallel Channel which extends from the Sept 2000 high. Also highlighted this week is the Gann Fan ( scale set to 1 ) calling the recent top. There is no COT for this coming week, as we await early January for the expected annual market rally.

NASDAQ See Chart
*** Last weeks action has yet to confirm the continuation of the upward trend, with the market yet to break the highs of the previous week. Any failure to make these new highs should be considered as bad news for the short term as a second lower high is a very bearish indicator.

This week chart shows The Gann Fan ( scale set to 1 ) with the market topping on the extreme 9:1 line, showing just how fast this has recovered from the Sept lows. Also highlighted is the 2:1 Gann Fan line from the March 2000 high showing how efficiently the market jumped this line and is now running outside it. I would anticipate that in the short term, the upward movement would continue, pushed along mostly by the January effect and rises in other markets, however a movement this far this fast cannot be sustained forever. The correction, when it comes, should be a reflection of the rise, Fast.
